I only learned today of Gerrys passing. Please accept my condolences to the family. Gerry was kind to everyone she came in contact with and always, always had a smile on her face. I got to know Gerry many years ago at Bingo and talked with her frequently at Largo as well. She will be dearly missed, so very sorry for your loss.

Steve and Debra, my love goes out to you both. Steve, watching your mom react to any of our dogs charging her always made me laugh. She always took it in stride with a smile on her face.

I was saddened to read of Gerry’s death. I got to know Gerry during our banking days and also had gotten to know Crock when I worked in the Bridgeport area. Such a fine and really special couple that I feel fortunate to have met and shared time with along my life’s path. My deepest sympathy to her family.

Gerry and Croc were my parents’ next door neighbors. I’ve known them and Steve since I was eleven years old. They were more than neighbors they were family. My thoughts and prayers go out to Steve and the whole family. Mau God bless you all and watch over you.
